My prior was that location of AI compute power was unimportant. Apparently very wrong.

It gets very expensive if it’s not near your data

When seen from a UK context, makes it very clear just how much Nvidia stand to gain from concern about this (and vulnerabilities are enormous, esp with things in the US being so "unpredictable") https://www.ft.com/content/cc04adfb-81b2-477f-b85c-ce042e8f83a8
